Our firm’s involvement began with its original design in the 1970’s through renovations in the earlier 1990’s and to its latest re-birth, E Wing was designed to reflect an interactive, technology driven academic environment. This building forms part of a courtyard link blending with other campus buildings, opening onto landscaped exterior space.
Classrooms are normally subject to change with the development of new technologies and the challenge was to bring an almost forty year old building into the new century. Fortunately the original concept for the main block of this building was a component based system, modular in nature and therefore easy to manipulate and evolve. Upgrading to a modern use was therefore in keeping with our age-old philosophy of future building renewal.
